Kais Saiid is Tunisia new president, He won in the runoff election by landscape
The one country you can see the Arab spring still hanging on
75% of voters chose Saiid, a low-profile law professor
He beated a charismatic media magnate Nabil Karoui
Thousands take to streets for celebration
Saiid thanked the youth
90% of 18- to 25-year-olds voted for Saied according to estimates
He thanked all who voted
Even those who voted against him
“This is freedom” he said
He vowed to build “New Tunisia”
Vowed to build new relation with neighboring countries
His first visit will be to Algeria
Tunisians were disappointed from many things
Economic performance and corruption were on top
Voters chose new faces
Not the old ones of government
Not the ones related to existing parties
The chose an independent scholar
Voters sent a clear message, expert said
We’re done with you, we’re done with the establishment and their failed promises”
Tunisia was the first to ignite the first Arab spring
Would it ignite Arab Spring 2.0 !
